It's often both at the same time and more in between. Through examining the strategies and tactics of movements, past and present, we'll discover how media can shape social change and how we can become more savvy media practitioners ourselves. text/html 2021-10-04T04:19:19+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/citation_standards?rev=1633321159&do=diff Citation standards Appropriate citations are a highly contextual matter. There is no one style of citation that is appropriate for every case. Rather than stipulate a particular citation style for all times and places, I encourage students to learn to determine for themselves what standards they should use in a given context. By the end of one's education, one should be familiar with a variety of citation techniques. text/html 2017-10-14T15:34:16+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/global_media_literacy?rev=1507995256&do=diff Global Media Literacy Take a collaborative tour of the global media environment.

I love hearing from students, and I love helping my students succeed. I also love email, which is at least in theory an ownerless, anarchistic, open protocol that doesn't rely on any one company or entity to make it work. But often I find that students come to college in need of a few pointers on what an effective email looks like. text/html 2017-01-12T18:23:40+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://nathanschneider.info/school/religion_in_american_life?rev=1484245420&do=diff Religion in American Life: Discovering the Past, Encountering the Present What this class is about Religion is omnipresent, so to speak, and it influences our society in immense ways. Yet we are often taught not to think, discuss, or even notice it. This course will teach the opposite lesson.

As we discuss critical and primary readings on media, democracy, and the public sphere, the class will undergo a process together. We will cultivate our own public sphere, setting rules and adjusting them as we go. The midterm and final projects are short exercises in established genres of media intervention.
